CASE a DT at A2Z Scrapbooking With a Vintage Look

Delia made a scrapbook page using the Vintage Travel Digital stamps.on her post here.  I cased this layout for a card. It was truly an inspiration.

Join the challenge at A2Z Scrapbooking and see this sample here.

I did not make my card as vintage as the layout, but I like it.

I used Judi-Kins Embossable Window Plastic with two rows of foam tape to pop the camera up.

The double row of foam tape keeps the sequins loose enough to move freely as seen below.

I hope you like my CASE of Delia's scrapbook.

July Dreams

The tissue box behind the squares was grabbed off the shelf by me with future uses in mind.  I knew I was going to use it in card making, either as a tag or part of a card.  I love the colors and design.  This is one of my favorite cards for July.  It's going to someone special, not sure who, but obviously someone special.

Retirement - a new beginning

I made two cards this weekend to post today.  This post is all about one of the people I work with, who is retiring.  He's definitely looking forward to it.  He rides motorcycles, though not so much anymore, but he and his wife ride bicycles too.

Here's my card.

I've never used a bus before in a card, but this seemed an appropriate symbol.  AND it HUGE!  I usually make cards for large groups to sign by folding an 8 1/2" by 11" piece of cardstock in half.  I needed a large image.  I recently bought some Hero Arts digital ikits from A2Z Scrapbooking Supplies and thought I could do some entertaining things with it.  I'm happy with this card, blue for the sky, a piece of white for the road, yellow die cut sun and some white fluffy clouds to continue the good feeling.  The license plate has Ed... for his journey from work to retirement.  I touched the bus up with a Copic marker (Boooo) for some shading, rather than so much white.  I think I used Y19 on the big headlights and Y21 on the lower lamps.

This turned out to be a great masculine card.    

I'm entering the A2Z scrapbooking challenge of "Something New".
